“And for the sides of the tabernacle westward he made six boards.”
Exodus 36:27 (KJV)
Commentary on Exodus 36:27
Six boards form the west side (יַרְכְּתֵי הַמִּשְׁכָּן, yarketei ha-mishkan, 'the rear/back of the tabernacle'), creating the back wall opposite the entrance. The tabernacle's orientation (entrance east, back west) meant worshipers faced west, moving away from the rising sun—a deliberate contrast with pagan sun-worship. Israel's God dwelt in the west, and His people approached Him moving away from sun-worship, demonstrating that true worship rejects created things for the Creator (Romans 1:25).
